SSE Renewables’ first battery storage project now fully operational
The asset is now trading in Great Britain’s wholesale energy market following the completion last week of final energisation tests at the site. Battery storage plays a key role in unlocking the path to net zero because of its ability to hold and release energy when most needed. The Member of Parliament for Salisbury, John Glen MP who also serves as Paymaster General and Minister for the Cabinet Office, officially marked the asset reaching this major milestone at a ceremony held today.

A novel automatic release cage increases survival of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts released at night
Trap-and-transport of migratory fish is commonly used to bypass in-river obstructions. On the River Conon in Scotland, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts are transported around two hydropower facilities. Smolt release occurs during daylight when predation rates can be high. A novel Automatic Release Cage (ARC) was designed to release smolts at night. Smolts were fitted with acoustic tags (n = 99) to compare survival.
